Arrival Guide
Cast iron soaking tub on the back porch. No ceiling, better views.
⚠️ Water left sitting in freezing weather can crack the tub or pipes.
Propane stove in the corner of the dining area — your main source of cozy.
Two mini-split units: one above the front door, one in the loft. Set to 71° winter / 74° summer. Remote on the window sill.
Filtered well — safe to drink. Tankless water heater = endless hot water. Running >2 hot sources at once drops pressure everywhere.
Fully equipped kitchen. Coffee pods in the crockery. Propane grill on the back porch with built-in starter. Free firewood near the firepit. Lighters in the kitchen drawers.
Flashlight in the living room. Gaston works without electricity — you'll still have heat.
Property = the cleared area. Beyond the tree line is neighbor's land. Meadow has hidden holes — wear shoes. This is Appalachia: deer, fox, snakes, and a reported bear or two. Enjoy from a distance.
